Pinwheels

Thanks for your get-well wishes! My Cold is still stuck somewhere in my lungs, but it's retreated from my nose, so I can breathe again. Oh joy!

Anyway, time for something crafty!!!! A friend of mine asked me to make a play-rug as a gift for a newborn baby. Of course I'll make one! We tried to make it bright and cheerful, because babies love bright colors and contrast. And we made it nice and soft, because it will probably be used on the floor. And since babies spit, we have made it out of 100% cotton with a fleece backing, nice and soft and easy to wash! those were the criteria, and then I could go crazy with it... And since I love pinwheels, this is what I ended up with! It's 1.40 m by 1.40 m. Big enough to roll around on...
